!Go directly to 17:40 to see my customization on buttons!

Hi everybody and welcome! My tutorial on how to set up your Sony a7s II for filmmaking. In the video I go through camera menu explaining changes I've made as well as show you how I prefer to customize fast "Function" menu and what settings I assigned to my Custom buttons C1-C4 for instant access while shooting.

My apologies for rather long video (I promise to make it shorter in the future!) and low rate of my speech: please, be patient and not hit me in my first attempt to give something back to community. English isn't my native language, sorry ;)

That said I hope you'll find it helpful. Please let me know in comments below and I'll be glad to see your settings shared.

If your found these review and test shots useful, please, consider giving a like as it encourages me to continue working. Thank you and have a nice time!
